You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: CB457 Subject: RE: sports hernia/ athletic pubalgia Body: The most critical issue in sports hernia is simultaneous hip flexion and adduction. While hills are good at involving posterior chain action (bounding much more so than really running), the combined effect of hip flexion and adduction (in athletes with improper recruitment patterns--aka most), not to mention, many people have the tendency to quad it up the hill by going into an excessive anterior weight bearing posture. Further, hill bounding and running is an integration of several less complex motor actions. If (and most aren't) you aren't recruiting properly in isolation, it absolutely won't happen in integration. I see much better options (initially, at least) to get the posterior chain back, and none of them involve running. It is essential to start from isolation before you start integrating, especially with a sports hernia. --CB Hit the submit button below if you want us to review the post.
